Thing 19 - Web 2.0 Awards list findings

I viewed Farecast.com. I frequently book airline tickets online and I was interested in what this site has to offer the consumer. I liked the fact you could price compare from multiple airline sites. It was easy to navigate Farecast.com. The useful features on this site included (1)Know When To Buy:Airfare Predictions, (2) Top Airline Ticket Deals and, (3) Know When To Fly Travel Tools. The consumer could search flights for accurate airfare predictions. The predictions were indicated with arrows pointing up or down. An arrow pointing up means to buy the ticket now. An arrow pointing down indicated that you should wait to purchase your ticket. The Top Airline Ticket Deals gave the consumer the option to check various cities for the latest deals. And finally, Know When To Fly: Travel Tools displayed graphs which tracked departure dates and lowest fares. Many people use the public library Internet terminals to book their airline flights. Farecast.com is another tool the public could take advantage of when they are considering purchasing an airline ticket online.
